Offer your views on a day of family fun

A FREE fun day is on offer at Evermoor Hub, with the chance to give your views on what improvements can be made at Digmoor Parade.

West Lancashire’s arts development service has organised the event between 10am and 4pm on Tuesday, August 15, with exciting games and creative activities.

There will also be music, a face painter and bouncy castle.

Professional storyteller Izzie Major will also help entertain the crowds.

The main focus of this event is to consult with the local community on how the council-owned parade can be improved.

Ideas could include new artwork and plants to brighten up the area.

Cllr Yvonne Gagen, portfolio holder for leisure, said: “The council really wants to hear from local people about ideas for how the parade can be improved.

Ideas given on the day will help create a temporary piece of art called Wishing Wings that artist Sarah Jane Richards will work on with visits to the family fun day.

Suggestions made by local people will be attached to feathers on the artwork.

People are invited back to the Evermoor Hub on Wednesday, August 23 from 10am-3.30pm to help Sarah complete the Wishing Wings artwork.

Anyone interested in plans for the parade can contact Helen Juste, arts development manager at the council, on 01695 571328 or email helen. juste@westlancs.gov.uk
